Certification — Frequently Asked Questions
Answers based on Manitoba workplace rules, Canadian Red Cross policy, and Winnipeg course options.
Our Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C course is taught by certified Canadian Red Cross instructors and meets Manitoba workplace (WCB Manitoba) first aid requirements. You receive a Canadian Red Cross certificate valid for three years. If your employer names a specific requirement, confirm it with them before you book.
Your certificate is issued within 48 hours of finishing the course. You get a digital copy you can send to an employer straight away, and it stays available in your Red Cross account.
Blended means you complete the theory online at your own pace at home, then come in for the hands-on day. Full classroom covers everything in person. The certificate is identical either way — pick whichever fits your schedule.
Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C is valid for three years. Basic Life Support (BLS) is valid for one year, because healthcare employers require an annual renewal.
You can recertify if your current certificate is still valid or expired by no more than 90 days, and it was issued by the Canadian Red Cross or an equivalent provider. Bring it with you on the day. If it expired more than 90 days ago you need the full course again.
Bring photo ID, your existing certificate if you are recertifying, and your online completion record if you booked a blended course. Wear comfortable clothes — you will be kneeling on the floor for the CPR practice.
Yes — contact us before your class date and we will move you to another date or another location. Our team can also transfer a seat to a colleague if you booked for your workplace.
BLS is the healthcare provider level, asked for by hospitals, nursing and paramedic programs and most regulated health colleges. Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C is the workplace certification for everyone else. If your employer or school named one specifically, take that one.
